Join Santa Claus and his elves for a magical ride behind Portland’s famous steam locomotives. Vintage rail cars transport you through wilderness in the heart of the city. Round-trip rides run from Oaks Park Station through Oaks Bottom Wildlife Refuge to the Springwater Trail gateway on the Oregon Pacific Railroad.

Gift Shop

Make your family’s ride on the Oregon Rail Heritage Foundation’s 11th Annual Holiday Express a complete rail fan’s dream. ORHF has a loaded gift table complete with shirts, hats, coats, DVD’s, and lots or railroad memorabilia. We guarantee you will find the perfect gift for the train lovers in your family regardless of their age.

Suggestion: let the kids choose their favorites before the train pulls out and then, after the ride, send them to the car with another adult while you get what they wanted. It’s all in a good cause, too. Christmas morning smiles at your house and help support ORHF as it maintains and builds on Portland’s long history of railroading.

Do your shopping early for the biggest selection of shirts and sizes. The gift tables are open during all the hours of the Holiday Express.
